Too much work for a sheetty base platform. I’m out.
Take 3 grand buy an 05-06 Cobalt SS Supercharged wrecked or not and swap motor, trans, brakes, what ever I can use in. Use left over 2k for suspension and tyres. Car is still FWD car is still road legal, idk if it will hit the 1:50 but it’s would be fun as hell to try.

Swap engine for Hayabusa Motor ($1,500)
Upgrade suspension, wheels and tyres ($1,500)
LSD for front ($500?)
Destroying the 1:50 limit? Priceless.
Suzuki Aerio engine 2.3 with suzuki Baleno Dohc 1.8 Worked Head and a turbo with 12lbs of boost that will do…
I know I can get a old 80s corvette motor, keep the hood off, and yea, thats about it.
Take the Geo gut and strip it, buy a Acura Integra with the b18a1 and 5 speed swap front and rear sub frames install an eBay turbo kit, beefy clutch and some sticky road race tires for grip I think you would be good at least for your one lap.
1.Mount body on backward
4.remove unneccesary wieght(ie doors, windscreen etc)
Its still front wheel drive no one said anything about wether or not your alowed to drive backwards
Wait, we weren’t supposed to buy one and actually do this?
